At this moment, all those who had made great achievements in the great war were worshiping the Emperor of the Great Xia Empire, and they all shouted loudly.
Chen Qingtian was no exception. He also said naturally: "Chen Qingtian of the Eastern Army, pay homage to the emperor and live as long as heaven!"
"Meet the emperor and live as long as heaven..." Countless voices sounded in unison at this moment.
"Everyone, get up!" The voice from the throne came down.
Everyone stood up, and many people did not dare to raise their heads.
Chen Qingtian's head was level and his eyes were slightly raised.
Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes around him all looked this way.
Most of the eyes fell on Chen Qingtian.
Some courtiers were even discussing quietly.
"Hey! That must be Chen Qingtian, the Holy Talent of Heaven and Earth! He is so young in a silver-gold armor..."
"Shh... I heard that he is not yet twenty years old... Even if he is a saint, it is difficult for him to reach the space realm at the age of twenty! It is said that he has also comprehended ten advanced meanings..."
"It is truly a divine horse, and it is so powerful, and it has achieved such great achievements. This is something that has never happened before in the empire. It is so strange..."
"You said that Chen Qingtian came to the Imperial City. I don't know what the emperor will do with him this time. Why don't we all propose that he stay in the center of the empire... He no longer has to serve in the Eastern Army..."
"Hmm... That's right. I think the emperor means this..."
Various sounds reached Chen Qingtian's ears.
In fact, no matter how careful these people speak, he can still hear them clearly.
It's just that there is too much noise, and he automatically filters it out to only listen to things that interest him.
The emperor's voice from above came down again.
"Everyone, you are all the great heroes of the empire in this war. I have called you to the Imperial City. I want to reward you heavily in person. I will not talk about other rewards. Now I want to give you the supreme honor of the empire."
"Thank you, Emperor..."
Everyone knelt down again to give thanks.
Chen Qingtian also pretended to mean something.
Then the emperor looked down again and said in a curious tone: "Among you, the one I am most interested in this time is Chen Qingtian!"
After speaking, he looked at Chen Qingtian.
When Chen Qingtian saw that he was called out, he also said politely: "Thank you Emperor for your appreciation. I just did what I should do."
"Hahaha..." Emperor Xiangsheng laughed and praised very generously: "Chen Qingtian, you have made such great contributions to the empire at a young age. Tell me, what reward do you want? I will definitely satisfy you. .”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Chen Qingtian with envy and jealousy. It was an incomparable honor to get such a promise from the emperor.
Chen Qingtian didn't have any special feelings, and said calmly: "Emperor, I don't want any reward, but I do have something to say!"
"Oh!" Emperor Xiangsheng said immediately: "But it doesn't matter!"
Chen Qingtian took a deep breath and said loudly: "Emperor, in this battle with the demon clan, nearly ten million ordinary soldiers of the Empire's Eastern Legion died in the battle!"
"I hope that I can share the honors I have with them, and I can ask for nothing. As long as the empire can properly accommodate their relatives and give them the honors they deserve, then I will be satisfied!"
Almost everyone was surprised when they heard Chen Qingtian say these words.
Unexpectedly, he didn't ask for rewards for himself, or even for those close to him, but for those ordinary soldiers who had died. This young man was indeed a little different.
Only Chen Qingtian himself knows that those ordinary soldiers may be really ordinary, but they use their weak bodies to become the most heroic cannon fodder.
Each of those people is flesh and blood. They are dead, but they still have many relatives alive. This involves an unknown number of families and an unknown number of people.
He hoped that these high-ranking courtiers and emperors would pay more attention to them and give them enough honor and posthumous arrangements.
Unfortunately, most of the courtiers looked at him with ridicule, as if Chen Qingtian's behavior was very ridiculous in their eyes.
Chen Qingtian didn't mind any gazes and looked directly at Emperor Xiangsheng to see what he would say.
The emperor also reflected it and said loudly: "Chen Qingtian, you are so righteous, I am very happy, that's right!"
"This time, for all the ordinary soldiers of the Eastern Legion who died fighting for the empire, their pension will be doubled. Their families will also be given an honor and their taxes will be exempted for ten years."
Chen Qingtian knelt down on one knee again and said sincerely: "Chen Qingtian thanks the emperor for his generosity!"
"Huh?" Emperor Xiangsheng seemed very happy, and then said: "Chen Qingtian, although you said you don't want any reward, but you have made such a great contribution, I can't help but reward you."
At this time, he said seriously: "Chen Qingtian and other imperial heroes should accept the title!"
Then, an old man in gray clothes below the emperor began to read.
The first person to be rewarded was Chen Qingtian.
"Chen Qingtian of the Eastern Legion, with his supreme supernatural power and bravery, killed countless powerful monsters and made extraordinary contributions to the Great Xia Empire. He was specially named a first-class divine power prince, rewarded with a large city as a fief, and was given a Taoist weapon from heaven. A sword, if you don’t kneel before the prince, and some other rewards..."
After hearing these rewards, many people were still moved even though they knew that Chen Qingtian would receive a big reward.
He is so young, he is just waiting, and he also has the word "divine power".
And this God-given sword also has a very special saying. This kind of magic weapon is to commemorate the founder of the Great Xia Empire, God-given Emperor, which is a great royal honor.
The God-given Emperor once said that he most likes young people who have made great achievements in great battles.
After that, in the entire empire for 30,000 years, only a dozen people received swords from heaven.
All of them are young talents, powerful and talented people, young and promising people.
And with a large city as his territory, he didn't have to kneel before the prince, which also meant that Chen Qingtian didn't have to bow to anyone else except the emperor.
In this case, in addition to his great achievements this time, he was also able to receive such an honor because he was a saint.
After Chen Qingtian heard about these rewards, he thanked him again: "Thank you, Emperor, and I may live as long as heaven!"
And everyone else has a reward.
Yuan Hongli of the Eastern Legion was awarded the title of Second-class Marquis, but he had already been ranked as a Third-class Marquis.
The nameless star was named a first-class uncle.
There are many people who have received rewards one after another, but the rewards of others are much less than those of Chen Qingtian, and are not worth mentioning at all.
After everyone finished sharing the rewards, everyone thanked them again.
Even the tens of thousands of courtiers shouted.
"The emperor is wise and powerful, surpassing ancient and modern times, and his life span is as long as the sky."
The atmosphere at the scene seemed very warm and peaceful.
But after the official reward was awarded, suddenly a man with no blemishes on his body, especially his face, stood up.
He first looked at Chen Qingtian, and then said to Emperor Xiangsheng: "Emperor, I see that Chen Qingtian has too much murderous, evil, and violent energy, which is harmful to the peace of the world. Now the war between the eastern border and the demon clan has ended."
"In the short term, there is no big crisis anymore. I suggest that Chen Qingtian be sent to Wen Gong Holy Land to take a break for a while to get rid of his anger, so that he can better serve the empire in the future!"
As soon as these words came out, all the courtiers looked shocked and looked over in unison.
The person who made this suggestion was none other than the First and Second Chancellor of the Great Xia Empire, the Literary Sage!
After he said these words, even Emperor Xiangsheng who was present was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, this prime minister actually wanted to send Chen Qingtian to the Holy Land of Wen Gong.
But he quickly said with a smile: "Prime Minister Wen, is Chen Qingtian really so violent?"
"You want to send him to Wen Gong Holy Land to eliminate the hostility in him. This suggestion really surprises me!"
The Literary Sage said respectfully: "Emperor, if Chen Qingtian goes to the Holy Land of Wen Gong to study the books of sages for ten years, I can guarantee that he will definitely become a peaceful sage. By then, he will be able to guard the four sides of the empire and suppress the national destiny. .”
"Hehehe..." Emperor Xiangsheng smiled, then looked at Chen Qingtian, and then asked enthusiastically: "Chen Qingtian, what do you think of Prime Minister Wen's words?"
"Do you want to go to the Wen Gong Holy Land to study for ten years and learn the ways of the sages?"
Everyone focused on Chen Qingtian and wanted to hear his answer.
But at this moment, Chen Qingtian felt very disdainful in his heart.
He first said to Emperor Xiangsheng: "Emperor, I don't want to go!"
Then, he looked at the literary saint, the prime minister of the empire, and said coldly: "You just said that the murderous, evil, and violent energy in me is too strong, right?"
"I don't object to this, but you have to know that even an ordinary demon clan has ten times more evil, murderous, and demonic aura than me."
"If you don't have evil energy, how can you kill the demon clan, how can you guard the borders of the empire, and how can you protect the hundreds of millions of people? I don't agree with your statement."
"The generals and soldiers of the empire should be murderous. If everyone learns the behavior of those saints, who will protect the empire? Will it be protected by etiquette and morality?"
"Then why don't you tell the demon clan about this? Do you think they believe you?"
All the courtiers were stunned!
Unexpectedly, Chen Qingtian dared to directly confront the Literary Prime Minister in the court hall.
You know, Emperor Xiangsheng has not been in court for decades, and Literary Saint is almost the acting emperor.
Even the emperor above was greatly surprised. He was more interested in Chen Qingtian.
He didn't say anything to stop him, and looked at Chen Qingtian with a smile. Then, he glanced at the literary saint.
But the literary saint, the prime minister, had a faint smile on his face, and there was no hint of any dissatisfaction on his face.
At this time, he stared at Chen Qingtian and said: "Chen Qingtian, you are indeed young and energetic. When you say these words, I can also feel how violent you are."
"It is precisely because of this that you should go to the Holy Land of Wen Gong and learn the way of a saint. If everyone in this world learns morality and etiquette, there will be peace and there will be no need for everyone to fight everywhere."
"Although the demon clan is ferocious, they have been suppressed by the empire for so many years. To the empire, they are just a scabies disease, nothing more than that."
"But if a saint like you cannot learn the way of a saint, it will be a huge threat to the empire!"
"Hahaha..." Chen Qingtian laughed. He did not expect that the so-called prime minister of the empire could actually say such words.
The demon clan is only a small harm to the empire, but it may become a big harm to the empire. It is really ridiculous.
